Warriors' Draymond Green appears to whack Jalen Green's head during playoff loss to Rockets

Just a few days ago, the Golden State Warriors held a commanding 3-1 lead in a first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets.

But the hard-fought game was marred by Draymond Green's latest hard foul.

Video replays appeared to show the Warriors star making contact with Green's head as he attempted to get untangled from the Rockets guard. Golden State's Green pleaded his case with referees after he heard the whistle, but officials quickly assessed the Warriors forward with an offensive foul.

After a review, officials determined the offensive foul needed to be changed to a flagrant foul.

The call granted the 23-year-old Rockets star a trip to the foul line, where he made both of his two free throw attempts. Houston was also given the next possession.

Draymond finished the game with 7 points and went 0-4 from beyond the three-point line. Houston's Green pointed out the longtime Warriors star's less-than-stellar Game 3 performance in a postgame press conference.

Draymond was also assessed a flagrant foul in Game 4 of the series after he rolled over Tari Eason and appeared to kick the Rockets forward.

Game 7 will be played Sunday night in Houston.
